Bridge Labs Connects U.S. Tech Firms with Africa's Top Developers
Bridge Labs, a pioneering startup, is unlocking Africa's tech talent for global companies. Founded by Kevin Fomengia and Peng Boris, the platform connects international firms with top-tier African software developers, offering significant cost savings and seamless integration.
Africa boasts over 700,000 skilled software developers, many of whom can work in sync with U.S. and European time zones. Over 24 African countries have English as an official language, ensuring clear communication. Bridge Labs accepts only the top 3% of applicants after rigorous vetting and screening, providing a vast, relatively untapped talent pool for tech companies to leverage.
The startup has already connected over 30 American tech companies with senior-level African developers. These partnerships have led to average reductions in development costs and faster product iterations and launches, although specific data on companies and savings is not yet available.
Bridge Labs is bridging the gap between African tech talent and international opportunities. By offering vetted access to senior developers and handling HR compliance, the startup is enabling global companies to tap into Africa's rich tech pool while reducing costs and accelerating product development.
